Whether it be hillwalking, mountaineering, climbing, kayaking, canoeing, skiing or snowboarding, all of these adventure sports give me the same rush of adrenaline, excitement and thrill. This blog follows my experiences in the outdoors as an aspirant instructor.

Upper Roy in Record Time

With more rain falling overnight there was still plenty of water to play on. So Bridget and I headed up to the Upper Roy this time. The river was absolutely huge, the grade 4 rapid 'rooster tail' was now a grade 2 and looking the easiest part of the river instead of the hardest part.

Once we were on the river it was a case of being pushed down and only having a little say in where you wanted to go. It took us around five minutes to get down because everything was moving so fast.

Great fun! Unfortunately no photo's camera isn't too happy at the moment!

About Me

Climbing is my first passion and I have been going into the hills since I was twelve.
Since then I have always been an outdoor enthusiast. As well as being Chairman of Nevis Canoe Club, I am also a member of Lochaber Athletics Club.
I enjoy all outdoor activities because I find they take you to places where you just shouldn't go!
I am trying to make a full time career from teaching these sports. I really enjoy passing on these skills and giving people a chance to experience something they wouldn't normally have the chance to do.
